Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity in Cichla monoculus (Spix and Agassiz, 1931) Populations: Implications for Management and ConservationCarlos Henrique Dos Anjos Dos Santos, Carolina Fernandes Silva De Sousa, Maria de Nazare Paula-Silva et al.Problem statement: The object of this study was to examine the genetic structure and gene flow in Cichla monoculus populations in seven varzea lakes of the Solimoes River using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, to monitor the region where petroleum is transported in the Amazon basin. Approach: The loss of genetic diversity is one of the main factors leading … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Multiple Imputations to Freight Transportation Survey Data: A Case Study of Commodity Flow SurveyTerdsak Rongviriyapanich, Akachut SuppiyatrakulProblem statement: Freight transportation data was indispensable input to transportation planning. In Thailand, efforts had been put to collect freight movement data by conducting road side survey and commodity flow survey. The results of these surveys did not produce consistent volume of shipment due to limited sampling coverage and non-response. Nevertheless, freight distribution patterns, which were derived from these surveys, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Genetic Algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem with Multi-RelationsSupat PatvichaichodProblem statement: The aim of this research is to investigate the Traveling Salesman Problems with Multi-Relations (TSPMR) in which each of the vertices has several edges and different weights. The study concerns the weights fluctuated by time in which the problem has more complexity than general TSP problem. However, this type of problem closes to the real-world situation in engineering … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2011 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUptake of Heavy Metals by Jatropha curcas L. Planted in Soils Containing Sewage SludgeParisa Ahmadpour, Azmi Mat Nawi, Arifin Abdu et al.Problem statement: The chemical pollution of soil has become a major source of concern and has posed serious health problems within the last few years in many developed nations. A variety of organic and inorganic pollutants, including heavy metals, are being mixed in with the cultivated soil and water. Sewage sludge was one of the major sources of enrichment of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 10,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRepresentative Particle Size of Sediment in Storm Sewer InletsJaber Almedeij, Ebtehal Ahmad, Jasem AlhumoudProblem statement: The aim of this study was examine the representative particle size of noncohesive sediment samples collected from different storm sewer inlets in residential catchments within Kuwait. Approach: A number of 25 sediment samples were collected from storm sewer inlets located in five residential areas in Kuwait: Bayan, Al-Nuzha, Al-Feiha, Al-Andalos and Al-Rumaithya. All the impervious areas for the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Compaction and Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis) Yield in a Clay Textured SoilZuraidah Yahya, Aminuddin Husin, Jamal Talib et al.Problem Statement: The impacts of soil compaction on crop yields have been studied extensively by soil scientists due to declining soil productivity associated with mechanisation. However, a relationship between machine-induced soil compaction and oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) yield is unclear. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to determine the effects of mechanization on soil physical properties and the influence … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 10,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMachinery Compaction Effects on Physical Properties of Bernam Series in an Oil Palm PlantationZuraidah Yahya, Aminuddin Husin, Jamal Talib et al.Problem statement: Introduction of mechanisation in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) plantations could result in soil compaction and cause soil degradation. This could be a serious problem in the future due to increase in size, weight and transportation frequency of machines used. Objectives: This trial was carried out to evaluate the effect of different trailer weights and transportation frequencies on the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiesel Engine Convert to Port Injection CNG Engine Using Gaseous Injector Nozzle Multi Holes Geometries Improvement: A ReviewSemin, Abdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu BakarThe objective of this study was to review the previous research in the development of gaseous fuel injector for port injection CNG engine converted from diesel engine. Problem statement: The regular development of internal combustion engines change direction to answer the two most important problems determining the development trends of engines technology and in particular, their combustion systems. They were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 8,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Coordinated Scheduling Support System of Production and DeliveryMing-Feng Yang, Yi LinProblem statement: Traditional scheduling models which only address the sequence of jobs to be processed at the production stage under some criteria are no longer suitable and should be extended to cope with the distribution stage after production. In a rapidly changing environment, competition among enterprises has a tendency to turn towards competing between supply chain systems instead of competing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 6,803 accessesView PDFCite
